Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai:
 "This development cycle resulted in a fair amount of changes in both
  core and driver sides. The most significant change in ALSA core is
  about PCM. Also the support of of-graph card and the new DAPM widget
  for DSP are noteworthy changes in ASoC core. And there're lots of
  small changes splat over the tree, as you can see in diffstat.

  Below are a few highlights:

  ALSA core:
   - Removal of set_fs() hackery from PCM core stuff, and the code
     reorganization / optimization thereafter
   - Improved support of PCM ack ops, and a new ABI for improved
     control/status mmap handling
   - Lots of constifications in various codes

  ASoC core:
   - The support of of-graph card, which may work as a better generic
     device for a replacement of simple-card
   - New widget types intended mainly for use with DSPs

  ASoC drivers:
   - New drivers for Allwinner V3s SoCs
   - Ensonic ES8316 codec support
   - More Intel SKL and KBL works
   - More device support for Intel SST Atom (mostly for cheap tablets
     and 2-in-1 devices)
   - Support for Rockchip PDM controllers
   - Support for STM32 I2S and S/PDIF controllers
   - Support for ZTE AUD96P22 codecs

  HD-audio:
   - Support of new Realtek codecs (ALC215/ALC285/ALC289), more quirks
     for HP and Dell machines
   - A few more fixes for i915 component binding"

+Tracepoints in ALSA PCM core
+============================
+
+ALSA PCM core registers ``snd_pcm`` subsystem to kernel tracepoint system.
+This subsystem includes two categories of tracepoints; for state of PCM buffer
+and for processing of PCM hardware parameters. These tracepoints are available
+when corresponding kernel configurations are enabled. When ``CONFIG_SND_DEBUG``
+is enabled, the latter tracepoints are available. When additional
+``SND_PCM_XRUN_DEBUG`` is enabled too, the former trace points are enabled.
+
+Tracepoints for state of PCM buffer
+------------------------------------
+
+This category includes four tracepoints; ``hwptr``, ``applptr``, ``xrun`` and
+``hw_ptr_error``.
+
+Tracepoints for processing of PCM hardware parameters
+-----------------------------------------------------
+
+This category includes two tracepoints; ``hw_mask_param`` and
+``hw_interval_param``.
+
+In a design of ALSA PCM core, data transmission is abstracted as PCM substream.
+Applications manage PCM substream to maintain data transmission for PCM frames.
+Before starting the data transmission, applications need to configure PCM
+substream. In this procedure, PCM hardware parameters are decided by
+interaction between applications and ALSA PCM core. Once decided, runtime of
+the PCM substream keeps the parameters.
+
+The parameters are described in :c:type:`struct snd_pcm_hw_params`. This
+structure includes several types of parameters. Applications set preferable
+value to these parameters, then execute ioctl(2) with SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE
+or SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_PARAMS. The former is used just for refining available
+set of parameters. The latter is used for an actual decision of the parameters.
+
+The :c:type:`struct snd_pcm_hw_params` structure has below members:
+
+``flags``
+        Configurable. ALSA PCM core and some drivers handle this flag to select
+        convenient parameters or change their behaviour.
+``masks``
+        Configurable. This type of parameter is described in
+        :c:type:`struct snd_mask` and represent mask values. As of PCM protocol
+        v2.0.13, three types are defined.
+
+        - SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_ACCESS
+        - SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_FORMAT
+        - SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_SUBFORMAT
+``intervals``
+        Configurable. This type of parameter is described in
+        :c:type:`struct snd_interval` and represent values with a range. As of
+        PCM protocol v2.0.13, twelve types are defined.
+
+        - SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_SAMPLE_BITS
+        - SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_FRAME_BITS
+        - SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_CHANNELS
+        - SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_RATE
+        - SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_PERIOD_TIME
+        - SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_PERIOD_SIZE
+        - SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_PERIOD_BYTES
+        - SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_PERIODS
+        - SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_BUFFER_TIME
+        - SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_BUFFER_SIZE
+        - SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_BUFFER_BYTES
+        - SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_TICK_TIME
+``rmask``
+        Configurable. This is evaluated at ioctl(2) with
+        SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE only. Applications can select which
+        mask/interval parameter can be changed by ALSA PCM core. For
+        SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_PARAMS, this mask is ignored and all of parameters
+        are going to be changed.
+``cmask``
+        Read-only. After returning from ioctl(2), buffer in user space for
+        :c:type:`struct snd_pcm_hw_params` includes result of each operation.
+        This mask represents which mask/interval parameter is actually changed.
+``info``
+        Read-only. This represents hardware/driver capabilities as bit flags
+        with SNDRV_PCM_INFO_XXX. Typically, applications execute ioctl(2) with
+        SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE to retrieve this flag, then decide candidates
+        of parameters and execute ioctl(2) with SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_PARAMS to
+        configure PCM substream.
+``msbits``
+        Read-only. This value represents available bit width in MSB side of
+        a PCM sample. When a parameter of SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_SAMPLE_BITS was
+        decided as a fixed number, this value is also calculated according to
+        it. Else, zero. But this behaviour depends on implementations in driver
+        side.
+``rate_num``
+        Read-only. This value represents numerator of sampling rate in fraction
+        notation. Basically, when a parameter of SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_RATE was
+        decided as a single value, this value is also calculated according to
+        it. Else, zero. But this behaviour depends on implementations in driver
+        side.
+``rate_den``
+        Read-only. This value represents denominator of sampling rate in
+        fraction notation. Basically, when a parameter of
+        SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_RATE was decided as a single value, this value is
+        also calculated according to it. Else, zero. But this behaviour depends
+        on implementations in driver side.
+``fifo_size``
+        Read-only. This value represents the size of FIFO in serial sound
+        interface of hardware. Basically, each driver can assigns a proper
+        value to this parameter but some drivers intentionally set zero with
+        a care of hardware design or data transmission protocol.
+
+ALSA PCM core handles buffer of :c:type:`struct snd_pcm_hw_params` when
+applications execute ioctl(2) with SNDRV_PCM_HW_REFINE or SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAMS.
+Parameters in the buffer are changed according to
+:c:type:`struct snd_pcm_hardware` and rules of constraints in the runtime. The
+structure describes capabilities of handled hardware. The rules describes
+dependencies on which a parameter is decided according to several parameters.
+A rule has a callback function, and drivers can register arbitrary functions
+to compute the target parameter. ALSA PCM core registers some rules to the
+runtime as a default.
+
+Each driver can join in the interaction as long as it prepared for two stuffs
+in a callback of :c:type:`struct snd_pcm_ops.open`.
+
+1. In the callback, drivers are expected to change a member of
+   :c:type:`struct snd_pcm_hardware` type in the runtime, according to
+   capacities of corresponding hardware.
+2. In the same callback, drivers are also expected to register additional rules
+   of constraints into the runtime when several parameters have dependencies
+   due to hardware design.
+
+The driver can refers to result of the interaction in a callback of
+:c:type:`struct snd_pcm_ops.hw_params`, however it should not change the
+content.
+
+Tracepoints in this category are designed to trace changes of the
+mask/interval parameters. When ALSA PCM core changes them, ``hw_mask_param`` or
+``hw_interval_param`` event is probed according to type of the changed parameter.
+
+ALSA PCM core also has a pretty print format for each of the tracepoints. Below
+is an example for ``hw_mask_param``.
+
+::
+
+    hw_mask_param: pcmC0D0p 001/023 FORMAT 00000000000000000000001000000044 00000000000000000000001000000044
+
+
+Below is an example for ``hw_interval_param``.
+
+::
+
+    hw_interval_param: pcmC0D0p 000/023 BUFFER_SIZE 0 0 [0 4294967295] 0 1 [0 4294967295]
+
+The first three fields are common. They represent name of ALSA PCM character
+device, rules of constraint and name of the changed parameter, in order. The
+field for rules of constraint consists of two sub-fields; index of applied rule
+and total number of rules added to the runtime. As an exception, the index 000
+means that the parameter is changed by ALSA PCM core, regardless of the rules.
+
+The rest of field represent state of the parameter before/after changing. These
+fields are different according to type of the parameter. For parameters of mask
+type, the fields represent hexadecimal dump of content of the parameter. For
+parameters of interval type, the fields represent values of each member of
+``empty``, ``integer``, ``openmin``, ``min``, ``max``, ``openmax`` in
+:c:type:`struct snd_interval` in this order.
+
+Tracepoints in drivers
+======================
+
+Some drivers have tracepoints for developers' convenience. For them, please
+refer to each documentation or implementation.
